Personalized lighting for open area
First Claim
1. A method of controlling illuminance of a target area in a lighting system, wherein the lighting system comprises at least one light source and each of the at least one light source comprises a plurality of light modules, an output level of each of the plurality of light modules being adjustable independently, wherein different light modules within each of the at least one light source differ in terms of lighting direction, the method comprising:
- selecting at least one light module, which is associated with the illuminance of the target area, from the at least one light source based on the position relationship between the at least one light source and the target area and a lighting distribution of each of the at least one light source, that represents a light intensity of the light source in respective directions in a space; and
adjusting the output level of at least one of the selected at least one light module.

Abstract
The present invention proposes a method, apparatus, controller and system for controlling illuminance. Specifically, the system comprises at least one light source, each of the at least one light source comprising a plurality of light modules and each of the plurality of light modules being adjustable independently; and a controller configured to control the illuminance of a target area in the lighting system. One or more light modules associated with the illuminance of the target area are selected from the at least one light source based on the position relationship between the at least one light source and the target area and a lighting distribution of each of the at least one light source. Then, at least one of the selected one or more light modules is adjusted to meet a certain requirement for the illuminance of the area. As a result, personalized lighting for an open area is effectively achieved.
